Child development problems: School

1. The school curriculum is too difficult. Some schools are more academic oriented than others. The belief that “the harder the curriculum the better the school is” is a fallacy. Many schools lack physical exercise as well which adds to the problems

2. The language of instruction is not understood by the child. Many children are bilingual or even trilingual. A child studying in a language that is not his mother tongue will find it harder to understand the instructions and the lesson. Even English is spoken in different accents and this can impact intelligibility.

3. The child is too young for the class. Age makes a big difference in the early years. If the child is young for the class then they may not be prepared for the demands of the class. This includes social and emotional demands like sitting for whole the lesson, asking for help and writing.

4. The school is too far from home. Often children live too far from the school. They have to wake up early and travel hours to reach school. This can make the child too tired and can effect their concentration as well.

5. The child is being bullied. Some bullying is subtle and a teacher may not be able to recognize the signs. Any kind of bullying can make a child anxious and take away her mind from learning.

6. The diet is inadequate. Often children eat little or no breakfast because of lack of time or anxiety. They may not drink enough water. The brain is 70% water and even one percent dehydration can cause problems with memory learning.
